(Closed) Ring pose needs a makeover!

The ring pose..you know what I mean, the traditional bride’s hand over the groom’s hand to get the ring shot. Or the ring laying on the invitation or the bride and groom holding them up looking through them. So…I’m sure there are different and unique ways to get the traditional shot of the rings. Do you have an example to share?

How about the rings on the heel of the bride’s shoes? Or the rings in some sort of dry food like candy? Those are just my ideas, but I’ve seen so many different and original poses on photographer’s blogs and websites.

Our photog did one with his hand on my face like he was going to kiss me and my hand reached up to his. Some people loved it, I hated it because I could not stop laughing on how cheesy it was while being taken. Look through the gallery on here, I know I have seen some really good ones on there!

Our photographer shot ours on the backcountry book we were using for our Glacier honeymoon and on my bouquet. We all forgot to do ring shots on the day, so we met with her at a coffee shop the next day to get them. It totally makes me laugh, because no one would ever have any idea that we were in a little book/coffee shop instead of at the wedding the way the shots are done!

Wedding: August 2009 - St. Thomas of Villanova Church & the F.U.E.L. House

Oh wow, I have SUCH a weakness for ring shots…I started saving a ton of them — on figurines, with food in the shot, etc. — into my Picasa months before I even started blogging. I love the idea of using fruit or candy, or a favorite book/CD/album as the backdrop.
